Artificial Intelligence, The Great Disruptor

The report of the 2017 Aspen Institute Roundtable on Artificial Intelligence features a series of chapters that examine the transformative nature of artificially intelligent technologies on our individual selves and our society.

Participants of the Roundtable challenged the powerful narrative of AI’s growing dominance and inevitable influence on today’s society.

Artificial intelligence is about a much larger landscape — major industrial and commercial sectors, the character of democratic governance, the sovereignty of people in making their own choices, and the lens through which we will view human purpose and meaning.
